I Will Be Here

And when I have the change I will add a recording with a Pearl head.

Spare change anyone? lol... that should have read "when I have the chance"... and I didn't mean to put a wink after my gag.

Oh my gosh! That was the first song (I will be here) that my husband and I danced to for the main wedding song at our reception. I love that song! Oh...that brings back memories.

I sang that song for a wedding too. (Back in the days when I used to sing.)

I'm enjoying the music!!!

Please tell me, what is that song you are playing with the Gem 3SB?



<Added>

I'm referring to the first song you posted. Thanks!

Well Catman it looks like Stephen is busy, so I will respond for him.

He played CPE Bach Sonata in A Minor for Solo Flute.
If you would like a copy, email me.

Thanks. That first recording was the second movement of CPE Bach's Sonata in A minor.

Lol. Kara got to it first.

Sorry for my delayed replies. I can't access 8notes from work anymore (since the redesign...).

I think "I Will Be Here" was one of our better arrangements. Our lead arranged it from some honky tonk country recording. Came out quite nice.

This a clip continuing the CPE Bach on the Pearl flute with its original head:

This is the same flute with a Natsuki head:

This is the Gemeinhardt with a Natsuki head:

Now I wonder what ya'll think the best flute/combo is from the recordings.

Gosh, that is a hard one. It is hard to tell from a recording. It sounds like you are more comfortable on the Gemeinhardt to me.

I'm finding that after all this time going back to the original head was quite shocking. It's competing! lol.

I was expecting to get a better flute with the Pearl. I'm giving it more time though. It's getting to be more stable as I work with it.

I'm going to try re-recording with the Natsuki as I think playing with the original head screwed up how it has been responding.
